I did some research and found:  indications for Triple Antibiotic Ointment Triple Antibiotic Ointment is a combination of three antibiotics for cats and dogs: Bacitracin, neomycin, and polymyxin B. It is used as a first aid for wounds in cats and dogs. A popular dog and cat medication, it is...

Its not an open wound. Its a scrape and I've been looking at it multiple times a day.  Its not infected.  

Hi Thanks for your post.  I will put the collar back on, however my assessment is that a vet is NOT necessary.  Its not that serious.  An over the counter topical should do it.  That's what I need a recommendation for. thanks again.

I'm not sure what to put on it.  Any recommendations?  I washed it with warm water and mild soap.  Then he scratched it with is nails.  not good.  so I put a collar on him and he seriously pouted and moped about the house so I took it off. I hate seeing my baby mope.  he was sooo irritated he...

My babies Freeway and Exit (2 years old) had a similar problem.  I stopped feeding them dry food and added lots of water to their wet food.  I also gave them 1/8th teaspoon of miralax with water and a tiny bit of wet food twice a day.  After a short period of time they started pooping again.  I...

Hi Thanks for your reply.  I did some additional research and found several posts on Google with folks having a similar problem with even longer string than the tank top strap. Apparently he will likely poop it out.  Hair ball remedy may help break down and move it out. Luckily the strap is...

Please help -  my cat Freeway chewed a strap off my tank top and possibly ate it while I was sleeping.  I had it laying on the couch and when I woke to put it on, I saw that it had been chewed off and couldn't find the strap anywhere, which has led me to believe he ate it.  How can I get him to...

Yes pumpkin is sooo good :)  I think I'm going to refrain from feeding them dry food . . .  I will only re introduce it when they are totally better.  I hope that will be soon.  I'm seeing progress but they have a little way thanks!

Hello again Sassy CAT! I just thought of something else that might be helpful . . .  your little kitty might be lonely if you work all day and then wants to play with you at night . . .  you might consider getting her a friend of the same age, that way she has a playmate and another cat to help...

Hi SassyCat! Ah, my baby Exit keeps me up occasionally as well.  Play before bed is good, as is a good meal before bed, and maybe try rescue remedy to calm the nerves.  They make a formula for kitten/Cats.  You may have to add it to a little wet food.  It really works, both my cats love it and...

I'm so happy to report that Freeway and Exit pooped yesterday.  And the poops were not hard and not too soft, about 85% normal.  Whew  . . .  I am sooo glad they are on the mend.  They were very playful and energetic last night when I got home from work.  Yay!  I am so relieved and happy for...

Hi Advisor, Thanks for responding.  I stopped giving them dry food two weeks ago.  I also tried pumpkin and was told by the vets assistant to stop the pumpkin as it adds bulk to the poop, that was when their poop was hard but now that it is too soft a little pumpkin might set things right.  I...

Can anyone see my post about my two kittens being constipated. I sure could use some help! THX

Hi Please HELP  . . . both of my 2 year old kittens became constipated about 3 weeks ago.  I was feeding them dry cat food and wet canned food left in the bowl for them to eat whenever.  I consider both foods good quality foods Halo for Indoor cat dry and Wellness wet turkey, and fresh water. ...

So Sorry to hear about your kitten.  I had a kitten many years ago that fell three stories from the balcony.  I was terrified she would die but she was fine not a scratch.  Lucky I guess.  Your kitten will recover. Not sure about the breathing situation.  If your kitty is not fine by the morning...
